PRACTICE TESTS:

The Beer Scholar's practice tests for the CBS exam contain a mix of questions covering all five sections of the CBS exam from beer service to styles to pairing. They're similar to the ones you'll see on the real exam.

The guide contains four (4) full practice tests with 60 questions on each. By the time you've taken and graded these, you'll know what you need to brush up on and whether you're ready for the real thing.

Note: What's the difference between the CBS and CC Beer Scholar Study Guides?

The Beer Scholar Study Guide to the Certified Beer Server Exam (CBS) is a very pared down version of the Certified Cicerone (CC) with different practice tests. If you’re definitely planning to take the CC Exam, already have strong beer knowledge, and are merely taking the CBS exam to get it out of the way, consider purchasing just the CC Guide.

The CC Guide is much more robust and will help you pass the CBS Exam. The CBS Guide will not prepare you for the CC Exam.
